A dive-in movie series screening the Pirates of the Caribbean film series poolside at the Fairmont Austin, with classic movie snacks available.
Fairmont Austin is turning its pool into an open-air cinema for Pirates of the Caribbean on Tuesday, August 18. It's part of the hotel's Dive-In Movie series, which screens fan-favorite films poolside every other Tuesday throughout the summer. The whole thing is pitched as a summer evening out for families, friends, or a date night, and the movie itself begins at twilight.
Since it's a dive-in, you're watching from the pool rather than a theater seat. The Fairmont describes the setup as turning the pool into an open-air cinema, and the movie starts once the sun goes down, so you'll be floating or lounging in the water as the film kicks off. It's a low-key way to spend a Tuesday night in the city when the heat is still hanging on.
They've got the theater snacks covered, too. Fresh popcorn, candy, and other nostalgic theater favorites are available to buy, so you can lean into the cinema side of things while you're in the pool. It's a straightforward setup: a fan-favorite movie, a pool, and the usual snacks to go with it.

The screening runs from 7 PM to 10 PM, though the movie doesn't actually start until twilight, so you've got some time to settle in before the first scene. It's on Tuesday, August 18, at the Fairmont Austin pool.
